While I agree with this, you completely changed your argument.
Yeah, it's not like Wii Fit Trainer's game was one of the top-selling Nintendo games of last generation and pretty much a gaming phenomenon.
You can make a moveset for anything. People have made movesets for L Block.
First, Smash Board is the only place that gives two ****s about Pac-Man. He isn't liked on gameFAQs or 4chan and he isn't discussed in Japan at all. As for WFT, she was discussed before she was shown.
The rumor was that is was to be revealed at E3, so the rumor was contingent on it being true.
He actually got Villager's name wrong.
My apologies. People on the internet often make posts that they claim is 100% fact (like Brawl not being a good game). I assumed you were doing the same. I was wrong.
Ironic, considering that Sonic Lost World is also considered a mediocre game.
Iconic means jack crap. Being iconic didn't get Sonic and Megaman in. What got them in what the fan perception of them. Anyone with any sense will tell you that the primary reason that they got in is that everyone wanted them. It was clear as night and day. The fan perception is not the same for Pac-Man as people expect him but don't want him though this is fading with Sakurai's comment about Namco characters. To fans, Megaman and Sonic have identity and history with Nintendo. Sonic is seen as a rival and Megaman is seen as a cousin. Pac-Man doesn't share these qualities. Pac-Man was never specific to Nintendo and never had any relation to it. Pac-Man's peak was in the arcades and Mrs. Pac-Man and everything else has been him in the gutter.
A game made by Shigeru freakin' Miyamoto doesn't count as a connection to Nintendo? You must have some ridiculously high standards.
We also have three Mario Kart arcade titles featuring Pac-Man, one including his new design. Namco was one of the original five third party licensees for the NES (before Konami and Capcom became major names), and they even had a falling out that played out like an early version of Squaresoft.
By the way, in the Golden Age of Video Games, Donkey Kong was the second most popular arcade game. The most popular? Pac-Man. The connection between these companies has always been there...
In conclusion, there's only one thing to say...
Guesses don't mean you know anything. Guy is 50/50 doesn't mean he knew anything. Remember, he didn't have a leak until had guessed right. Convenient, don't you think.
I just think he's a neat character and it would be cool to play as him.
It's quite plainly not convenient to simultaneously predict three characters no one to that point had lumped together because only one person had even brought up one of the three previously, and most had given up hope on another of the three, given that he was one of the few characters Sakurai himself seemingly deconfirmed. All that's really up for speculation is what happened with the other three characters: were they legitimate leaks that ended up rescheduled, erroneous/false information from the source, false additions from the poster, or some other option?
Actually Mario Kart Arcade GP and Mario Kart Arcade GP 2 did get global releases, albeit in limited quantities due to how arcades are a fairly niche market these days. I remember actually playing Mario Kart Arcade GP 2 on a Royal Caribbean cruise ship, and I can say that despite the Mario Kart title it does feel different to play.
No no no, what are you talking about, Sakurai chose her because he is a troll and WFT is a troll character and Sakurai hates Smash fans so he chose a character nobody requested to piss us offYeah, it's not like Wii Fit Trainer's game was one of the top-selling Nintendo games of last generation and pretty much a gaming phenomenon.
Fixed.
Dude, a fitness trainer would be fun to play as!
Good catch, and you're right there, although I think it's a much greater stretch to interpret "Animal Crossing Guy" as Tom Nook than as the Villager, given that, since people actually brought up Tom Nook, calling him anything else would be misleading, whereas Villager was previously a bit of a blank sheet, other than the "Boy" trophy name. Tom Nook in combination with Mega Man would have caused me to raise an eyebrow, since his requests were always rather low-key, basically a handful of half-hearted attempts to maybe get in an Animal Crossing Rep without stumbling over the tripwire that was Sakurai's belief that its characters were too passive, though I wouldn't have considered it a likely leak at all. WFT, however, is an entirely different story.
Star Punch Mechanic, Heart Mechanic, Doc Louis, combo-oriented boxing playstyle >>>>> Chomp, Butt Bounce, Rev Roll, unknown playstyle
That's understandable for the most part because Pac-Man's playstyle is a massive question mark; not even his fans have talked about how he'd play, only which three or four moves he'd have, which most likely leads individuals to believe his playstyle would, like the character himself, be middle-of-the-road (generic, in other words). Little Mac's playstyle is anything but a question mark; at the very least, he'd be a fast, combo-oriented boxer whose speed offsets his limited range, potentially with a cool Star Punch mechanic or Doc in the mix as well. The hypocrisy you're trying to shine light on is much more evident with Chrom as the example, although there are still people out there who believe he'd use anything but a sword, or that he'd be coupled with Lucina or something (
). Though ultimately, some might find it easier to be happy with the devil whose halves they know rather than the devil they don't.

Namco and Nintendo work together frequently, and they have a deep rooted history. Namco is making Smash Bros along side Nintendo. Pac-Man and Mario have already been in a game together. Cool, Megaman has game numbers. But that's because Megaman has 800000 games. BOTH Pac-Man and Megaman have strong ties to Nintendo, and trying to say one has more over the other is just silly because there is no real way to measure it. I'd still put my money on Pacs.
I wanted to like your post, but couldn't due to your rudeness and vulgar language later on. so I just quoted the part I liked.
Your lucky (for now) the mii was not announced today the male wii fit trainer destoryed the chance of mii getting anounced today
